December BABY…
“Are you ready for Christmas?’ “Ya sure! But first I need to celebrate a birthday!” That is a conversation I’ve had for eight years. Yep, my second born, took his first breath December 23rd, 2006, and it was the BEST Christmas present ever! I’m still really surprised at how many people react negatively to Giorgio’s birth

How Many Friends Do You Have?

SOOOO How’s Your New Job????
It’s good! I mean it’s grrrreat! (Insert Tony the Tiger’s finger here). But we need to clear something up: I do not FLY planes, or serve food on airplanes, and I don’t work for the airport. “SO WHAT DO YOU DO??” I am the Business Development Co-ordinator with The Loomex Group. “BUT WHAT DOES THAT
